Color Cue {8} and Cardabilities Challenges

Monday, September 20, 2010



I needed an anniversary card for my in-laws, so I decided to combine the Color Cue {8} Challenge with the Cardabilities Challenge. I love how this card turned out! Perfect fall colors!
Isn't the patterned paper just gorgeous?! I couldn't believe how perfectly it matched the colors for the challenge, so of course I had to use it. The yellow vertical piece of cs is made with a stamp from the Double-Line Doodles SU set. I love my Frames with a Flourish SU set, but haven't used it all that much. I thought it was a nice complement to the patterned paper. Finally, the polka-dot ribbon ties it all together. Thanks for stopping by! I would love to hear your feedback! :-)







Supplies:
Stamps: Stampin' Up - Frames with a Flourish, Everyday Flexible Phrases, Double-Line Doodles
Cardstock: Stampin' Up - Whisper White, So Saffron, Bravo Burgundy, Old Olive
Patterned Paper: Heidi Grace Designs
Ink: Stampin' Up - Chocolate Chip, Always Artichoke
Ribbon: Joann's Papercrafting Ribbon
Other: Dimensionals

  3. Neat card! You did great matching the designer paper to the color scheme for the challenge. Even though it's a floral pattern, the colors keep it from looking too girly, and I like that.
